Calliope had always thought of themself as “luckier” than other members of their species. And although that title had never seemed to stay solid with them throughout the years, it seemed to shine as bright as ever in their mind. At least at the current moment. They were out with the closest person they could call a parent, multiple bags in their arms filled with various decorations and food for his hive. “well, what do yoU think of earth C so far?” They asked, looking over the bags as they patiently waited for his answer. “i ThInK tHiS pLaCe Is MoThErFuCkInG wOnDeRfUl,” he began. “Im FeElInG mOrE aNd MoRe ReDeEmEd JuSt BeInG uP aNd In ThIs PlAcE.”
Calliope would’ve clapped their hands together in response if they were available, instead opting to let out a small chitter of joy. “thats jUst splendid! ive tried my very best to make this place as enjoyable as possible for yoU! i feel as if it’s the least i can do after all yoU’ve done for me.” Gamzee didn’t return their sentimental look. “i ThInK iTs eNoUgH, sIsTeR.” He lazily reached his arms out to the sky. “BrIgHt BlUe SkIeS tO gUiDe My FoLlOwErS aLl Up InTo MoThErFuCkInG lIvIn It WiTh Me.” He lowered his arms, turning towards them. “AnD iVe GoT yOu To ThAnK fOr It.” Calliope smiled and turned back towards the sidewalk, adjusting their arms so everything settled better.
“goodness, i dont deserve all of the credit. john was the one who broUght yoU back in the first place.” They said bashfully. “AiNt YoU tHe OnE wHo GaVe HiM tHe IdEa?” Calliope turned away from him, bringing a claw up to their face. “i sUppose i did, bUt trUly thats not a big feat. its nothing compared to yoUr natUral kindness.” Gamzee chuckled, the sound long and dragged out. “iT wAs A mOtHeRfUcKiNg MiRaClE,” he replied slowly before continuing. “aLl Of ThAt TiMe In ThAt FrIdGe MaDe Me ThInK. aBoUt CoMbAt, pHiLoSoPhY, lIfE, lOvE. bUt MoSt ImPoRtAnTlY, hOw MoThErFuCkInG sOrRy I wAs.” Gamzee’s expression was now a faux sadness, his gaze towards the ground.
Calliope returned his frown, reaching out to put a claw on his shoulder. As best as they could, anyway. “I dIdNt MeAn To KiLl AlL mY fUcKiN’ fRiEnDs!” He paused for a moment. “I wAs LoNeLy.” A sad clown honk followed his words, the source unknown to them but impactful nonetheless. Calliope would’ve wiped a tear from their eye if they were able to. “i can’t imagine how awfUl it mUst’ve been for yoU. a neglectfUl lUsUs, no trUe friends.” They shook their head solemnly, their eyes closed. A beat of silence passed between the two before a hand on their shoulder made them look at Gamzee. He stared up at them, the look in his eyes unclear. “It WaS mOtHeRfUcKiNg ToUgH, sIsTeR. bUt BeInG aLl Up WiTh YoU aNd My FoLlOwErS mAkEs It AlL wOrTh It.”
Their smile returned as they let out a small chirp. “oh, here’s yoUr hive!” They slowed to a stop in front of a large building, a faint yellow light emanating from the windows. “looks like i forgot to tUrn the lights off before i left..” They muttered, tilting their head. Gamzee walked forward first, prompting Calliope to follow him. Once inside, Calliope dropped the bags onto a table and began digging through them. They stopped upon feeling a hand on their shoulder. Turning around, their eyes widened as Gamzee offered them a bottle of Faygo. Where he got it was unknown to them. “DoNt StArT hUrRyIn’ AlReAdY,” he said as he pushed the bottle into their hands. “lEtS eNjOy ThE mOtHeRfUcKiN’ mOmEnT.”
“oh! of coUrse, what was i thinking?” Calliope chuckled as they opened it. “we shoUld invite roxy! im sUre she’d be happy to join Us!” Gamzee nodded in agreement, prompting them to rush towards the phone. They had a good feeling about the rest of the night.
